I had a wonderful stay at Tifikara by the waterfall! I highly recommend this hotel, the staff were super friendly and helpful, customer service was phenomenal! Location was perfect a 5 minute walk from La Fortuna waterfall. A special unexpected treat was the free guided night tour around the property the hotel offers where we got to see so many exotic plants and animals such as super colorful frogs! The free breakfast was delicious and the ahi tuna steak was a great choice for dinner. I especially loved drinking coconut water on the way to my room while enjoying the tropical scenery. I highly recommend staying here!
